Kryptographik is a trans-continental podcast featuring Brian (in the U.S.) and Damian (in Australia), providing news, reviews, and commentary regarding science-fiction, dark fantasy and horror, in and out of comics.

Due to scheduling and other issues, we've decided to release short episodes, called Kryptik Musings, to tide our listeners over between episodes of Kryptographik.

In our first Kryptik Musings podcast, Damian reviews The Darkness: Butcher and a preview of Titanium Rain.

If any of you didn't know Warren Ellis is actually doing a new webcomic called Freak Angels which can be found at Freakangels.com. Now if you haven't seen it then here's what it's all about:

"23 years ago 12 Strange children were born at exactly the same moment. 6 years ago the world ended. This is the story of what happens next."

Now if that isn't enough to entise you as it was for me, basically in this post apocolyptic society it's not what we are always expecting for something set in that kind of world. There is no deserts there are holes of humanity struggling for a way to survive in a hostile world.

What has happened is the "Freak Angels", who are the ones that were all born at the same time, have made a lift for themselves in Whitechapel and are mainly keeping to themselves. Until a girl with a shotgun comes storming in and accusing them of killing her relatives.

Now there are only 2 episodes up so far but in each episodes there are 6 pages per episode so your getting a good chunk of the story for your veiwing pleasure.

The art is fantastic. Paul Duffield does a great job of bringing this story to life. It doesn't feel out of place and also the way he does the steampunk elements like the water powered Gyrocopter and the way you can get a sence of what is happening off panel is something that you don't see that often espesially in a web comic.

As always Warren Ellis' storytelling is dragging me in and wanting me to know what is going to happen next. What more can you say about the man that hasn't already been said. As most Warren Ellis fans know he is a big fan of the Steampunk genre and there are elements that have been show that makes you wonder what people are doing for technology within this post apocolyptic world and I'm sure as the story goes on we will find more if it.

Also another bonus for there is a page transcript offered for those that are interested.

Overall this is something I'm going to be reading for a long time and I hope that it will be collected at a later date so I can have this to put on the shelf!

After a (not too) brief hiatus, Kryptographik returns with our 1st Anniversary podcast (a few weeks late. Shhh.). We discuss some of our favorite stories from 2007, as well as a few stories we're looking forward to in 2008.

Much like Cloverfield, stay through the end for a little surprise.

Kryptographik is a trans-continental podcast featuring Brian (in the U.S.) and Damian (in Australia), providing news, reviews, and commentary regarding science-fiction, dark fantasy and horror, in and out of comics.

In our Halloween podcast, we turn tradition on it's head and (along with some friends) bring the treats to you.

In this episode, We have an audio comment from Aaron, host of the Sci-Fi Dig Podcast, a review of Eric Red's Containment from KomicsKast's Jon Hook, and a review of Marvel Zombies from the Comic Timing / BK Bullets / Geeks Unite podcasting crew (along with our rebuttal).

We also discuss our Halloween traditions, our ongoing costume contest, what we call our listeners, changes to the show's format, and our multimedia portal (with movie trailers and video interviews) at http://kryptographik.ning.com

We close out this episode interviewing author Robert Devereaux, as we discuss his new novel Deadolescence: A Tale of Love and Sacrifice, available only via email - for free! That's right, starting on Halloween he'll be e-mailing 2 chapters a week to anyone who signs up on his website at http://www.robertdevereaux.com/News/

(Even if you sign up after Halloween, each email will contain links to the previous chapters - so there's no excuse not to sign up.)

We discuss the story behind the story (think Shirley Jackson's The Lottery meets Prom Night), e-publishing vs. traditional publishing, and whether or not Roger Bacon wrote the works of William Shakespeare (no, we're not kidding).
